On the opposite of the category of finitely presented unital commutative rings, a basic covering family is A→A[fi−1​], where finitely many fi​ generate the unit ideal. Include the empty cover of the zero ring. Localization commutes with base change, so these families define a coverage on a category. Their sheaf topos classifies the coherent theory of local rings. This coverage is subcanonical: representable functors obey the usual localization gluing equations.
